Commander Haden Wenswing floats motionless in the depths of space. In the midst of a black hole, he is awoken to find that there is no sign of his crew or the MSS Clavileño which suffered a catastrophic failure during a routine spacewalk. How is he alive? Is his crew okay? Who woke him up? Wenswing is astonished to meet Sir Sirius, a self-proclaimed "clown errant" whose jocular inter-dimensional antics lead to strange and questionable answers. Written in about eight hours based on prompts drawn from a hat!
